Under ReviewConstruction of a new 4-story, 60-unit luxury apartment building with ground-floor retail and rooftop amenity deck, replacing an existing dilapidated commercial structure.
Pacific Vista Holdings has submitted plans for a new 4-story, 60-unit luxury apartment building at 789 Ocean Front Walk in Venice. The proposed development, currently under review by the Department of City Planning, represents a significant investment in the highly sought-after beachfront community, with an estimated value of $45 million. The project aims to replace an existing dilapidated commercial structure, promising a modern aesthetic that respects Venice's unique character while offering upscale living options.
The design includes ground-floor retail spaces, intended to contribute to the vibrant pedestrian experience along Ocean Front Walk. A key feature of the development is a rooftop amenity deck, offering residents panoramic views of the Pacific Ocean and the iconic Venice boardwalk. This emphasis on amenities aligns with the growing demand for luxury coastal living in Los Angeles.
Community stakeholders are closely watching the review process, particularly concerning potential impacts on local traffic and neighborhood character. Pacific Vista Holdings has indicated a commitment to sustainable building practices and incorporating design elements that blend with the eclectic Venice environment. The project, if approved, would add a substantial number of high-end rental units to an area where housing supply remains critically low.
